Systematic review of human and animal studies examining the efficacy and safety of N-acetylcysteine (Nac) and N-acetylcysteine amide (Naca) in traumatic brain injury : impact on neurofunctional outcome...: D68-10/084-2018E-PDF
"No new therapies for traumatic brain injury (TBI) have been officially translated into current practice. At the tissue and cellular level, both inflammatory and oxidative processes may be exacerbated post-injury and contribute to further brain damage. N-acetylcysteine (NAC) has the potential to downregulate both processes. This review focuses on the potential neuroprotective utility of NAC and N-acetylcysteine amide (NACA) post-TBI"--Background, page 1.
